RAMSBOTTOM: Boss Ken Bridge has been hit by a double injury blow ahead of their NWC Division One home clash with Nantwich Town tomorrow.

Centre back Dave Roach faces a three month lay-off after a specialist ordered him to take complete rest to help cure his longstanding groin problem. And wing-back Mike Langhorn now faces a third operation on his broken nose.

However, David Yorke-Robinson is likely to be back in contention after a knee injury.
